Replacement elements are available for approx 30..40 euro's per piece at various online shops.

Wires with cable clamps attach to the heating elements. These can be removed by removing the plastic sleeve, followed by pressing a little pin while pulling the clamp.
-
Gently push/shift the old element out of the oven. Make sure no broken glass particles are left behind. Install the new element.

If the short-circuit is hard to find, then it can be handy to use a current clamp meter in combination with an external DC power supply.

To assemble the oven, follow the disassembly instructions in reverse order.
